Member of Parliament for Ningo Prampram, Hon Samuel Nartey Gearge has confirmed that there has been a turn around regarding the  call on the Ministry of Communication and Digitalization to revise the requirement for the registration of SIM cards and that the Voter’s ID card can now be used as a document for the registration of SIM cards.  

Hon Sam George in a tweet says “We have had a breakthrough. I can reliably inform you that the Ministry of Communications and Digitalization has finally seen wisdom in our position.”

“They have through the National Communications Authority directed the MNOs [Mobile Network Operators] to accept the Voter’s ID Card as a document for the registration of our SIM cards.”

 

However, according to Graphic Online the Ministry of Communications and Digitalization has not made any announcement on the new directive and that their checks at the Ministry for a confirmation of the MPs claim is yet to be verified.

The last time the Ministry made announcement on the registration it stated that all SIM cards that have been linked to Ghana cards, that is completed Stage 1 registration, but have not completed Stage 2 registration of biometrically verifying users, will be blocked from the end of October 2022. The Ministry of Communications and Digitalization is not extending the September 30, 2022 deadline.

Rather, it is giving a temporary moratorium to the end of October to encourage individuals to complete the process.
